Package zoo updated to version 1.6-4 with previous version 1.6-3 dated 2010-04-23

Title: Z's ordered observations
Description: An S3 class with methods for totally ordered indexed observations. It is particularly aimed at irregular time series of numeric vectors/matrices and factors. zoo's key design goals are independence of a particular index/date/time class and consistency with ts and base R by providing methods to extend standard generics.

Package random.polychor.pa updated to version 1.1.1 with previous version 1.1 dated 2010-04-28

Title: A Parallel Analysis With Polychoric Correlation Matrices
Description: The Function performs a parallel analysis using simulated polychoric correlation matrices. The nth-percentile of the eigenvalues distribution obtained from both the randomly generated and the real data polychoric correlation matrices is returned. A plot comparing the two types of eigenvalues (real and simulated) will help determine the number of real eigenvalues that outperform random data. The function is based on the idea that if real data are non-normal and the polychoric correlation matrix is needed to perform a Factor Analysis, then the Parallel Analysis method used to choose a non-random number of factors should also be based on randomly generated polychoric correlation matrices and not on Pearson correlation matrices. Version 1.1.1 a minor bug in showing the estimanted time needed to conclude the simulation is fixed. In this version it is also introduced the possibility to manage datafiles containing factor variables (i.e., variables with ordered categories) which in past versions may cause the function to stop computations when the Pearson correlation matrix is computed (due to the fact that in this instance a numerical matrix is expected).
